NFL suspended Cowboys DE Damontre Moore two games for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

The suspension stems from a December DWI arrest. With Moore, David Irving and Randy Gregory all facing suspensions and the league still deciding the fates of Nolan Carroll and Ezekiel Elliott, the Cowboys are going to be short-handed early in the year. Moore will be eligible to return against the Cardinals on Monday Night Football in Week 3. Jul 28 - 4:14 PM

Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said he thinks DE Damontre Moore is "embracing" the opportunity he has in Dallas.

"I think he has matured over the course of his career," Garrett said of Moore, who was cut by the Giants in part because of a fight with a teammate over a pair of headphones and was arrested in December on suspicion of DWI. To his credit, Moore seems to understand he has taken his NFL career for granted to this point, asking himself, "If you really love [football], why aren’t you doing everything to the best of your ability?" The Cowboys desperately need pass-rushing help, and Moore has the talent to be a factor if his head is in the right place. Jul 4 - 10:58 AM

It is a flier for a team in need of help on the defensive line. A third-round pick of the Giants in 2013, Moore has bounced around the league because of off-field and locker-room issues. He was arrested in December on suspicion of DWI and driving with a suspended license, offenses which will likely land him a suspension. Perhaps the Cowboys feel a return home -- Moore attended Texas A&M -- will get the talented rusher back on the right track. Mar 10 - 8:30 PM

The NFL has tabbed Harold Henderson to hear the appeal of Ezekiel Elliott's six-game suspension.

Henderson regularly oversees appeals hearings for the league, and the NFL tried to push him as an objective, non-biased party by having NFL Network reporters tweet that Henderson reduced Greg Hardy's suspension from ten games to four. However, PFT's Mike Florio -- an attorney by trade -- notes that Henderson's presence in the case "significantly" drops the chances of Zeke having the suspension overturned. "At best, he'll get a mild reduction," Florio wrote. Florio also states Henderson's hiring "significantly" increases the chances Elliott eventually files a lawsuit. Elliott's appeal will be heard on August 29.

One of the most impressive players through two weeks of preseason, Gathers was hurt in Tuesday's practice. Consider him week-to-week for now and doubtful for Dallas' third exhibition. Gathers has a 7-106-2 line this preseason.

It sounds like an AC joint sprain. The Dallas Morning News' Brandon George reports Green could be sidelined for two weeks. With Ronald Leary gone to Denver, the Cowboys were hoping Green would lock down their left guard vacancy. Jonathan Cooper and Joe Looney will now get longer looks for the job.
